Renting a storage unit may seem like a confusing process, but we’ve outlined the steps you should take in order to find the perfect fit. From determining the type of self-storage you need, to how much you can expect to pay, the Angie’s List Guide to Storage Units covers all the right stuff (in a climate controlled area, of course).

Although Angie's List doesn't provide info on average or "going rates" for various projects, when members and consumers submit reviews, they have the option to include that cost of the project.

With that in mind, one way to find out a very general price range on a project is to log on to www.AngiesList.com (http://www.angieslist.com/?CID=ANS) and search for "Moving" (or any other appropriate category for your project, such as remodeling - K&B or ceramic tile), and then look at the project cost info supplied by local members and consumers.

Of course, probably the best way to get the most accurate cost information is to request multiple bids from several contractors. As the price will vary with work site considerations and individual contractors' approaches, getting multiple estimates will help provide a clearer picture of what your project will cost.

I hope this information helps!

Here are the FAQ's on San Jose rent control - and only apartments and mobilehomes being rented are covered, not storage units.

http://www.sanjoseca.gov/FAQ.aspx?QID=521

More and more people are using storage units, so costs have gone up frequently and signfiicantly in the past few years.

Pretty much you are at the mercy of the market - if the market will support it, they can raise their prices - and the cleaner, newer, and higher security ones can do that easier (but also presumably protect your stuff better). Your only recourse, for lower cost, is to go with an older, shabbier looking or non-climate controlled place, build storage at your place, dedicate more of your personal space to storage, or get rid of stuff.

After the unpacking, a number of things became evident after Midway Movers left.
I managed to have 6 bottles of alcohol that disappeared, obtain a huge

in the refrigerator, and a family piece/collectible was broken and stuffed in the unpacking supplies in the garbage (thanks to my wife for looking through the garbage and ...More identify this).
Sadly, after the company said "submit a claim" they offered no assistance or acknowledged any responsibility for these items, and stated the standard "we will cooperating with authorities regarding any theft". Between missing alcohol and a broken valuable that was

in the garbage, and no assistance for the damage of a refrigerator, I would avoid letting this company into your home. Not only was it the individuals on the job that failed to provide quality service, but how the company dealt with the issue was also disappointing.”

Arrived at location to pick up reserved truck but no one appeared to be there even though it was during advertised business hours and the correct time of pick up. Another customer was also there and she called the number provided on the office. We stood out in the cold for over 20 minutes waiting. He later emerged from the building but could not find ...More my reservation at first. Rented me the truck for Monday through Wednesday. I extended the truck rental through Friday which was authorized. When I brought truck back he was again not there even though place of business was open and gates were open. I parked truck inside gates and put key in key drop box. I received an e mail from U haul a week later asking me to return truck. I contacted them with details of return. I received a bill receipt a couple days later where I noticed I had been over charged by a couple hundred dollars! Please avoid this business! The business owner is unprofessional at best and a scammer at worst!”

From start to finish they were polite, professional and helped us every possible way they could. The only thing I can say that wasn't 100% perfect is they Were 20 mins late but did call us the morn of the move Nd let us know they were running a bit behind and would be a cpl mins late. I give them a 99 out of a possible 100. Thanks guys,

worked with me to accommodate my schedule, even though I had to change dates 3 times! I could not believe the professionalism and care that

and his helper gave my belongings even though this was such a small job. They literally hand carried each piece individually after shrink wrapping and covering ...More each one.
I highly recommend

for any size job and will definitely use them again if I ever need a mover.
